Abstract

Phase noise in a radar interferogram is directly related to interferometric coherence and the look number of the interferogram. Therefore an optimal radar interferogram filter should incorporate information on both interferometric coherence and look number. We present a modification to the commonly used Goldstein filter by suggesting an improved determination of the filtering parameter. Experimental results with both simulated and real data sets show that the new filter offers much better results when used to filter radar interferograms. (ISPRS).
